The iHome iP99 will. It's designed for iPhone but will work for iPod Nano 4th Gen.

The Emerson Research Clock Radio will charge it. Of the five different devices that I own (totaling perhaps $300 dollars!) it is the only one which WILL.- CB

I am unsure about the question you are asking but I am the owner of an Apple iPod Touch 3rd Gen, Apple iPod Nano 4th Gen, and an Apple iPhone 4S and they all work with this set up. It is really nice. It was exactly what I was looking for without having to spend a ton of money. This item is just like the high end ones without the big price tag. It has worked on any generation Apple product that is associated with the (i believe its called) 30 Prong connector (which is the basic Apple (up until iphone 5) charging cord such as the adapter on this converter) it has the AUX cord for MP3 and other devices.

I think the latest iPods have a new charger, that won't fit. If you get a converter, I am not sure it will work--never tried. I just keep an old iPod on all of the time.

I drive a 2011 Honda CR-V and so far haven't been able to find a model that will work in it. I have the 5th generation Shuffle and when I tried to plug it in was told that my vehicle didn't support the format. I know this hasn't been much help as I'm not sure what year model car you drive. I'm assuming that my car would need a much older model iPod since none of the three MP3 players I've tried have worked. I hope you find something that works for you!

I do not know the connector of Ipod nano Generation 7, but you can always use a cable and connect it to the USB port. That's what I do with my old iphone which now only plays pandora. I find to be more easy to hand the ipod connected to a cable than using the docking station.

Yes, it will work on the 4th gen Nano as it uses the old 30 pin connector. If you have an auxillary connector it will play through the car's stereo perfectly. On my car it even turns the volume down when the phone rings for hands-off phone use with its bluetooth connection. And it charges up the Nano as well while you drive.

My IPOD's are the earlier ones I'm not sure what generation and the unit does charge them. If it don't charge yours I would just return it.Hope that helps

My friend gave me one for free. It works great with my 3rd gen Nano. It adds the "radio" function to the ipod menu. I have used it simply for the remote option (not in radio mode) and didn't notice the extra drain on the battery that others complain about.

I believe it takes anything that uses a lightening charge connection like the iPhone 5 and iPad 3rd Generation. If the iPod Nano uses the same lightening charger as the devices I listed then it should be fine. It will broadcast whatever you play on your device. If your Nano has the same lightening connection then it will play the radio through your Nano and into the speakers.

Fussy About Clock Radios, If you are looking for an iPod that does not need headphones then I suggest looking out for an iPod Touch. As far as I know they are the only type of iPod that headphones are not a needed item, but the sound quality drops to only okay. iPod docks do have speakers. They also charge your iPod (depending on what type of dock). Some docks can even function as an alarm clock. I hope this helped. Godspeed! ~SWWPD

I am using it with my iPhone 4 and it doesn't seem to have any problems. It also charges the phone when docked. Was worried about it since I couldn't find any other reviews that addressed this question, though I haven't checked extensively. I have noticed a few times that I get a slight buzzing sound when the phone is docked but the music is paused or off. This never happens with my 2nd generation Nano. With an extension cable I have even plugged my iPad into it and it plays fine, though it doesn't charge the iPad. This may be a cable issue, although with the phone hooked up to the JBL Micro through the same extension cable it will still charge as well as play. Hope this helps.

I don't know. I've never tried to use the alarms/clock on it; I always use my phone. although, if you could set an alarm on your ipod, I think it would play through the dock

Just and FYI for everyone out there who has a second generation itouch. The charging capability of any of the periphial docking devices that you have to play your itouch on are no longer supported by the second generation. The first generations are fine but a small programming change was made to the second generation that caused this to happen. So it's not the fault of the docking device you purchased- it's the Itouch itself. The only thing you can do is charge it using a Apple compatable charger but you won' t able to listen to it while charging Sorry.. I just got this news after purchasing my new itouch and calling the store where I bought it. Just and FYI for everyone out there who has a second generation itouch.

The version we got only has a line in, not a line out. Ours does not have the Ipod charge on top, but I think that was an option when we bought it. It has a USB charge and a "Line in" that does NOT work with headphones. The book says it is for a 3.5 mm line-in jack to play music from phones, iPods, MP3 players, and other audio devices that are not bluetooth enabled, alarm clock, USB port in the back to charge your phones or other devices. BTW, my husband loves it and I love the way it looks. We looked many years to find a lamp with an alarm radio!

This is not necessarily true. The nano 4g will work on most older docks but it will not necessarily charge on the dock. This is because the 4g nano charges differently than the older ipods.

Just to clarify - This unit does charge the iPhone 4. However, none of the other functions of the clock radio work with the iPhone 4, i.e. you cannot play back your music library or set the alarm to wake you with an iPhone music track.
